Comment 1577 for bug 1

The Internet-Enquete-Commission of the German Federal Parliament, published their first results of their two-year study (quote translated from german media coverage):
A mobile computer in every school bag - with this recommendation to the strengthening of media literacy, the Internet Parliament Study Commission presented its first results. "This is a good way, we must now follow through the states and municipalities," said the chairman of the Working Group, Thomas Jarzombek.

"If only every student brings it's (learning)-computer into the classroom, all parties will be forced to deal with the Internet," says the newly published interim report on media literacy. The goal of all efforts to promote media literacy is to empower individuals and strengthen it, especially the interactive media, "to use it self-determined, competent and confident".

Conclusion, the German Federal Parliament needs to become acquainted with Ubuntu rather sooner than later.
Imagine kids in Germany having an Ubuntu laptop in their school bag and teachers have their teaching plans ready in Ubuntu Cloud.
Ubuntu's footprint in Germany would play an essential role since European Parliament is also sympathizing with open source, not to mention Cities like Munich (Limux-Project), police-departments in France and others which already stepped up.
